I love the energy of a shoot with boys! It may have something to do with the fact that I can’t sit still myself;) This was one of my other shoots from my weekend in Invermere. This family’s cabin offered a gorgeous setting for pictures. We did some trekking through the woods, played tag around the tree house (which escalated to bean your parents with pine cones – thus resulting in the shot with a shovel of sand and pine cones hurling through the air), zoomed some favourite vehicles and enjoyed the lake. Lots of fun!

When I showed up at this shoot the mother and I realized that we had played for the same soccer team last year. She had been referred through another client and we had not made the connection. Such a small world! K, it was great to see you again and to meet your family. Your boys are fantastic to work with!

I posted a quick peek of this session last week but had not been through all of the images. There were some really nice details shots of this newborn and her sisters. I have been enjoying using my fixed 105mm lens for newborn details as well as portrait shots. The clarity and precision is beautiful.
The tiger stripes in her hair were so unique!

You will recognize this client from the opening page of my website. These first three have been clients since the little one was 2. Not only have I had the opportunity to update their portraits but they have also been involved in photo shoots for Cherry Four. Well, this time their mom asked me to do an extended family session for them. Part of the reason for the session was that one of the mother’s girlfriend’s father-in-laws, who is also a client (did you get all that) passed away suddenly. Fortunately I had done an extended family session for them just prior to him getting sick. The pictures were very precious to be able to look back on. So a discussion of that client’s situation made this client feel that this was important. I am honoured that they trusted me to do this session for them to capture their family and to preserve their memories. Thank you – it was so fantastic to work with all of you. I hope you had a blast despite the OVERWHELMING number of mosquitoes!

I wanted to get a quick post up of this gorgeous newborn for her mom. I am trying to get a ton done so I can have a few days off with my family but there are a couple of sneak peeks that I want to share before then. I will share more but here is a quick look;)

Yep, this session oozes it! This is one of my FAVOURITE families to shoot. I have been privileged enough to be documenting their lives for many years now. They are so in LOVE as a couple, which of course, flows right over into their girls. It is an absolute pleasure to work with a family like this (and not only because it makes my job easy) but it makes me feel special that I get to do this job. This is exactly what I want to do everyday!

We decided to do a studio/location session so we could take advantage of the gorgeous weather and the beautiful, mature trees in Garrison Green. I love having access to this park!

T & S, it is always a pleasure working with you. There are a ton more coming!

This next series cracks me up!

So in the middle of shooting mom and dad, the little one snuck in…they always want to be in the shot if they are not supposed to be;)

What an amazing shoot! I just love the pic’s, the girls are just so gorgeous. Well done Jody in capturing these special moments for the family. It must be amazing to capture a moment that will last a lifetime for people. You are truly gifted!
